**LETTER TO G. L. SHKLOVSKII**

[September 1913, after the 7th]

Dear G. L.!

Regarding Kuprin I can advise nothing except a visit to Gesellschaftsstraße.

Regarding money to the lawyer. In case of a loss you have promised something in vain. We shall give nothing, as we have nothing. The crash will be desperate.

For success we are prepared to give 500 frs. I await with impatience his letter to the Vorstand and to Mehring. We shall see if he can write it.

In case of a trip to Jena one must settle clearly: how much do we give? We shall decide whether to go.

It is good that you spoke with Moore regarding the latter.¹ It is generally useful for us to inform the socialists of at least some position in the International. If Moore would agree to write to the Vorstand or sign a letter from Zgraggen, that would be wonderful, but we can pay nothing (advise Zgraggen to obtain Moore's signature; Zgraggen will settle with him himself).

From the members of the Vorstand: Pfannkuch, Haase, Müller, Otto Braun, Scheidemann, Molkenbuhr, Ebart (Ebert).² In the protocol after the congress Zgraggen will find a complete list. To write to them one by one privately — very important for success.

I await copies of the Stuttgart lawyer's conclusions and of Bebel's letter to us. If you have not yet sent them, send them immediately. We are falling behind. Jena is coming soon...

..."Uplifting" news — chiefly Petersburg (the metalworkers' union is with us), Moscow (all the trade unions are with us, except the wavering weavers), Moscow (the conciliationists were in the newspaper group, but our people have already kicked them out... Plekhanov and Levushka fell into a trap!), the clerks' congress — 50 ours + 35 sympathizers + 15 liquidators = 100 "classical" group; + 40 "professional" — also liquidators!!! + 30 S-R's + 60 K-D's. That is the main thing. The rest — names and persons.

Why did you not write 1) did you, as a delegation, give a mandate to Plekhanov in Zurich? 2) whose was the wreath? why

**Footnote:**
* — ibidem — there.

¹ Moore — not identified with certainty in the available annotations.

² The reference is to members of the Executive Committee (Vorstand) of the German Social Democratic Party.
